The Zone: Survival Mission

I loved this show. The first three episodes are rather slow paced and not entirely funny however the 4 episode got me! So even if you wont watch the whole series I would recommend to watch the 4th episode. It´s my favorite together with the 6th 7th and 8th.. The further you go the better it gets. I think that the two male hosts are doing an amazing job and if you recognize them from different variety shows you know their sense of humor. I think this is the first time they had a variety show together in this composition so it is only natural that in the first episodes they needed a little time to adjust.

The games are not exciting or funny, the pace is slow, the editing is not interesting, I watched ep.1 and it didnt even make me laugh once. So even though it features 2 top variety show celebs Yoo Jae-suk and Lee Kwang-soo, this show is a failure in my opinion, extremely boring. Yoo and Lee also did not perform their usual funny sides like in Running Man, while the femail host does not impress at all. I also think that 3 hosts are inadequate for a survival game show, it needs more funny people in order to create funny interactions. There are so many variety shows in south korea, it is extremely competitive and takes a really good production to stand out.

I don't know why some people here giving review didn't laugh or entertained at all, but I found myself laughing a lot watching these 3 people engaged and interacted in different challenges and in each episode. Excellent chemistry between the three characters.

Didn't the female lead play in a historical K-drama as a princess and is a part of an older generation idol girl group? Wow I'm impressed how she could be that funny and didn't care at all about her image, and could catch up with the the male comedians from Running Man.

I heard season 2 is coming soon, so definitely I'm looking forward to it and hopefully it's fresher and able to bring more laughter.

For those missing the interaction between Lee Kwong Soo and Yoo Jae-Suk this is a nice fit. It is a short series, and while not as funny as some of the Running Man episodes, it is a nice fill in for those missing their interactions from Running Man. It seems to be a show that was produced after Busted! With some of the same secondary cast playing roles in the show.

For those in North America, this is a great introduction to the craziness that can be in the Korean Variety Shows.

The 3 actors play their archetypes quite well, Lee Kwong Soo plays the betraying always scared of everything personality. Yoo Jae-Suk plays the smart aleck who knows better. And Yuri plays the overall person who is a hero, or the smartest one in the group.

I think of the two males leads like the Korean version of Abbott and Costello, and Yuri as the female lead in any of their movies.

Is it their best work? No, but it is definitely better than most things shown on North American TV these days.

As I was saying, my Tv is scared of me cuz of how much I laughed at it! Hilarious HAHA. Loved the cast! I won't lie I found the show cuz of dex, but I'm glad I watched it all love the concepts and the casts. I vote bring more ppl on. Also cool to see a less serious side with a lot of the cast members in this show.

I think this serious is funny too because the small parts of the acting and the character breaks are HILARIOUS. And the side comments. Honestly I don't have much more to say than it was great, but the characters this review requires are crazy WOAH. 90 left.

Also bringing a moral story or lesson to each of the challenges is super cool. You'd think it'd be hard to tie in the lessons with humor and random crazy parts like this, but they did it well and took it serious in the end. That's fr the zone of life!

Loved it!
